They learn how architecture is created iteratively and sustainably: from analyzing architecturally significant requirements to architecture design guided by principles and patterns. Participants also learn how to document, communicate and evaluate architectures in a lightweight manner.
The training imparts these skills through a lively mix of teaching the necessary basic knowledge and directly applying it in practice with a consistent case study. It is based on the iSAQB CPSA Foundation Level curriculum and is accredited by iSAQB.
